Yerushalayim - Miami Boys Choir | Reaction (What a BANGER)

[@mosytube]

That guy is the composer and arranger of all the music. He also recruits and trains the kids. He’s a genius. No reaction to that key change?

[@PortuguesePai]

That makes a lot of sense. I figured he was the conductor/music teacher but just found it amusing seeing his join in those last few seconds to rock out with them. He sure knows how to pick em, kids and him were great

[@yehonatanlevy1]

@@PortuguesePai usually choir masters conducts a choir throughout the whole song, in this case the kids practice and are well trained to put on the show on their own. Therefore the conductor "yerachmiel began" who is also the composer, musical arranger and choreographer comes out at the end.

[@rochellengel3444]

The older guy is the composer of every song and choir leader . His name is Yerachmeil Begun. This year is their 45th year of the choir.

[@menachemross740]

@@PortuguesePai he is very picky when chosing who is part of the choir.

[@clairemcnally6293]

I know nothing about how to compose or arrange but he is obviously on another level. And some of these boys' voices are so clear like a bell it gives me goosebumps. This is art and I'm glad I found out about it!!! Love.tjis song so much and when David comes in with his pure voice I have to just stop and appreciate what he's delivering. Same with all of the boys, but for me David's (and Binyamin's) energy goes into a level of transcendence... Wow is all I have to say!

[@thelaw586]

I'm proud to say that I memorized their choreo by heart💅🤸‍♂️

[@rachelfeldhamer]

the guy writes and composes all of the music, picks the kids, makes the choreography. It is called Yerachmiel Begun and the Miami Boys Choir

[@PortuguesePai]

Oooooo, thank you so much for that clarification. That makes a lot more sense now. Those kids did have very old school "dad" moves 😆.

[@rochellengel3444]

Something to keep in mind is there is no pre-recording . All the kids are singing live. Also the hard to pronounce words are Hebrew. You can put it into Google to hear the pronunciations. All words with Ch are a strong cchhh - like that sound you make when you want to clear your throat 😉 Yerushalyim is Jerusalem

[@chaimmeirzaner6383]

True, although in this song there aren't any words with that specific letter

Yerushalayim is the Hebrew pronounciation of “Jerusalem” (our “J”s are pronounced as “Y”s)

[@PortuguesePai]

Thanks for that tidbit. Hopefully I won't butcher the word again 😂

[@Israelball]

@@PortuguesePai nah it's fine 🤣 anyone would butcher it. Me as a Jew, you think I know hebrew well? No way lol, I'm better than you but I still butcher it 😅

[@ieatbricks0]

it is live, but some of the clips are from other concerts and theyve just chosen the best ones. thats why sometimes its not in sync

[@hudakarli5512]

Yerushalayim is Hebrew for Jerusalem

[@PortuguesePai]

Thanks! I was trying to find it out, and I kept coming up with it meaning "complete awe". So I appreciate the clarification ☺️!

[@hudakarli5512]

😅 that's the mystical explanation, if you take the word yerushalayim and divide it in two you have Yirah (יראה) and shalem (שלם) meaning complete awe, that's why you got that explanation Yirah means awe or fear and shalem means complete or peace bc peace is parts joining and becoming a whole... Hebrew has lots of depth as you can see. But yerushalyim is Jerusalem .

[@hudakarli5512]

It's psalm (the bible) 125 verse 2 You can check it out there's English translation

[@PortuguesePai]

@@hudakarli5512 I think that's awesome. I love that it goes a little deeper. We don't really have that in Portuguese, so it's cool you got a "lay/general" term and then more in depth when the word is broken down

Did you notice that the composer Begun joins in with the boys, then disappears around 6:26, then reappears in the next shot? It must have been spliced in from another performance.

[@PortuguesePai]

I did! I assumed it was also spliced from maybe 2 different nights/events of this same performance. Glad I wasn't the only one that caught that 😆

[@Kyleaholic]

6:24 The Composer disappeared and returns after camera change!! This is some crazy conspiracy theory goin on….
